Tips of buying an air compressor to blow out a sprinkler system

I am wanting to purchase an air compressor to blow out my home sprinkler system. I am new to having a home sprinkler system. I wanted to see if I could have some advice on what to look for in purchasing a compressor for this purpose. The distance from the valves to the farthest head is approximately 40 feet.

Suggestions on the gallon size to look for, the cfm's, the hp, brands to buy(also brands to stay away from) etc. Thanks!
